Last night I killed a spider with my bare hands. No pics unfortunately.
MURDERER!!! Was that poor defenseless spider endangering you or your family? You just killed it for the sake of killing.

Wow way to go! It must have required a ton of bravery to kill the possum intruder. No doubt he was going to serious harm you, your family, and your property. I mean, it had already upset your dog to the point where it was barking! And double way-to-go Woodsie: you killed seven babies with four shots (that's a two kill per shot average)!!! Your rounds-per-kill ratio is sweet (sic; it should be kills-per-round), just like in the video games!!!!
My point is that I can't understand why someone would be so proud about shooting a possum (especially a mother with babies) that they would need to post a story about it. I don't have any problem with shooting an animal or any kind if it is justified, and only the shooter will be able to determine at that moment if it is justified. But, these kinds of stories make me think that the animals were shot just for the sake of shooting at and killing something.
Sweet!!! Now politics are in added in too!!! Killing possum intruders/terrorists is definitely an awesome way to get all those damn liberals in that damn Bloomington to understand why we have and use guns, especially for justified killings (self defense even?) like these.
And again, to be (more) clear, I don't have any problem with anybody shooting any animal if they feel it is justified. But I do think it is strange how sometimes the stories get posted here and on other gun sites as if they are serious tactical victories and/or some sort of feat of heroism. For example, I grew up on a farm and shot or was present when several animals (raccoons, coyotes, etc.) were shot. Not once though did I/we consider as something to be proud of. Instead, it was an unfortunate but necessary task to take care of, and then move on to all the other work that needed to be done that day.
THATS AWESOMEHad a run-in w/ a opossum in the spring. Ugly little suckers are hard to kill, even while inside a trash can. Took 4 shots from my .22 jennings; turned out to be carryinq 7 babies in it's pouch, so my "rounds per kill" went way up. Trash can doesn't collect water like it used to, either.
